It's a lost cause Tracy. His definition of 'natural' is simply this:
It is what I believe according to my interpretation of the bible.
Therefore, it is true and there can be no other truth.
Whatever you argue or question, he will interpret the bible, no matter how tortured that interpretation might be, in a way that accords with his own pre-defined belief systems. It is the nature of blind faith based 'logic'.

>Interesting. I believe a literal translation of LV 20:13 is And a man who will lie down with a male in beds of a woman, both of them have made an abomination; dying they will die. Their blood is on them which doesn't forbid the act but only where it can and cannot be done. In your translation it declares death as a penalty. Do you also support the death penalty then? If not, how do you determine which portion of scripture should be followed and which it is ok to ignore?

>>>You are not arguing whether or not homosexuality is natural or not - it is indeed simply because it has existed in nature for as long as man can remember. The argument you are presenting is what is natural and acceptable in the eyes of the Lord based on your religious beliefs. I am assuming that it is based on Romans 1:26-27, Corinthians 6:9, Matthew 5:22 and 19:4 and 19:10, or Timothy 1:9?

>>>How do you explain:
>>>
>>>Ruth and Naomi
>>>David and Jonathan
>>>Ashpenaz and Daniel

>>Well.. since that.. I tried to keep out of the bible, because, I do believe the bible is the word of GOD, but this is personal.. And the discussion of what is natural (or not) what is subjective (or not) it is wide than my own one perspective.

>>Here we go.. What is GOD think about that subject..

>>The Bible is full of passages condemning such practice. The men of Sodoma wanted to know the angels that stayed at the house of Ló. Then the word "sodomite" that is the man that seeks other man to have sex as a woman. Even who makes man's paper as the one that makes woman's paper are sinning and committing an abomination..
>>
>>here is 3 little samples:
>>
>>Dt 23.17 "..here shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel."
>>
>>Lv 18:22 "..Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination"
>>
>>Lv 20:13 "..If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
